Goodbye Seattle; Aloha, Hawaii!

July 5, 2016

I’m a little behind with this post– we left Seattle on Saturday and flew out to Hawaii. Our Seattle trip was so much fun– we visited a few beaches, caught up with old friends, and spent tons of time with family. We also visited a few family-friendly sites that Ryan and I had never taken Lila to– the Everett Children’s Museum, and the Seattle Aquarium. It was a packed week!

Then, we flew from chilly Seattle to…balmy Hawaii:

I was a little nervous about this flight– they couldn’t sit us all together, so Ryan and Lila sat together and I stayed with Charlie. It was 5.5 hours…that’s a long time to entertain a baby on a flight! Luckily, he did great– slept a lot, ate a lot, and stayed generally happy. Before I knew it, we were landing in Kauai, ready for vacation #2!

We are having a blast here– it is SO beautiful. I’ve been to Hawaii once before, on a high school biology trip– but, that was a long time ago and we were on a different island. Kauai is beautiful…and wonderfully laid back. It seems like a great place to take kids– just beaches and beautiful hikes for days.

Hope you had a great fourth! Aloha! 🙂

I’m impressed with Charlie! I’m already worried about myself on these flights… we go from PA -> California -> Hawaii. Hopefully I’m not too grumpy by the time we get there. I have a feeling the way back is going to be the real test for me… do you have a long stop on the way back?
